While Prince William and Kate Middleton looked grand on their wedding day, the happy couple didn't get all the attention. Princess Beatrice of York shared the spotlight and some say not in a good way. Her unusual headpiece, called a fascinator, was designed by Philip Treacy. Commentators around the world immediately weighed in on the fashion statement and it became an instant Internet meme, even appearing on satirical images of Osama bin Laden. A Facebook page launched shortly after the wedding titled "Princess Beatrice's ridiculous Royal Wedding hat" garnered nearly 140,000 likes. But maybe Beatrice got the last laugh. She sold the hat on EBay for more than $130,000, with proceeds going to Unicef and Children in Crisis. Photos

Lindsay Lohan arriving at court has become somewhat routine in Los Angeles. What isn't is the tight white minidress she chose to wear the day she was charged with felony grand theft for allegedly stealing a $2,500 necklace from a Venice jewelry store. The blogosphere lit up with comments about her choice. The minidress, which retails for under $600, sold out online in two days, according to ABC News.
